Jennifer Lyon is the pseudonym for Jennifer Apodaca, the author of the acclaimed Samantha Shaw Mystery Series. Frequently accused of daydreaming in school, she searched for a career that would make the most of her daydreaming skill and hit upon the idea of writing books. Now when she’s daydreaming, Jen can claim to be “working,” and even better, she’s discovered that the word, “deadline,” is a valid excuse for not doing housework! Jen and her husband have three sons and make their home in Southern California.
